I loved working for GW but regionals are not to great they do not do thorough investigations on certain things. I learned great communication skills and patience working there. I love how they are different cultures there.

Employees are nice and helpful. When all are not being team players, it's very stressful on the next person. Best part is when all team players are doing their part, the warehouse runs smooth, and takes pressure off all. Always asked to help train new employees.

Goodwill is not the place you want to work for as in job security.. they will terminate you for no reason. Management os alright.. some better than other... no 401k in line of work.. discounts for shopling is the only pro. No bonuses no pay raises.

goodwill is not a long term career job for me i need something better than $230 every 2 weeks . I can barely pay bills or my phone bills. Right now im just working here because ut was the fastest job that hired me im ready for something better.

This job is perfect for young kids alot of fun and you make great friends, However it seriously lacks as most retail jobs do in wages. This is NOT a livable wage. However if your looking for some extra cash and a fun job this is your answer.

Greet customers, Help them find merchandise, Checking them out, Put new merchandise out on floor each day, Picked up clothes off floor, Fix shoe racks so it would look neat, Clean work area, Get donations from customer, Place the donations in certain areas, Clean bathrooms, Sweep store, Clean dressing rooms

Goodwill is a great place to work at they are very flexible with your hours and days off. They help to make sure your okay and comfortable with what you have. There is also a lot of drama with the employees and arguments with them as well. A lot of slow workers that slack on the job

I started as an hourly employee and moved into a management role. This place has “cliques” or groups of employees, who run the show. And there are cliques within cliques. Integrity and professionalism doesn’t exist here with some of the management. The culture is disorganized, toxic and impossible to figure out, which makes it very stressful. Records/files are disorganized (good luck during your accreditation process). The bottom line is that it’s all about the profits. It’s a (for-profit) non-profit organization. Yes, they help consumers, but it all boils down to revenue and how to constantly bring in more of it. Salaried management makes a little more than the hourly employees, but be prepared to put your family on hold, while working 5, 6, or 7 day work weeks (10+ hours per day). If you do the math, you’ll be earning less than minimum wage if you’re in management. The stress isn’t worth it. Turnover is constant and employees are looked at as completely replaceable at any time. There are no leaders and “management” is the style that they enforce (instead of leadership). If you have a passion for helping others, please do yourself a huge favor and look at other companies. The CEO needs to retire, as well as some of the other managers below him. They need to bring in fresh talent to replace those in management roles. Only then will the organization have a chance at re-fulfilling it’s own mission of helping others and not focusing so much on how it can profit off of those they serve. The high prices in their retail stores for items that are donated for freetöbb... is just wrong. Why not give some of the clothing, cars, etc. to families in need? Pay it forward. I would imagine that if the culture doesn’t make a 180 degree turn here that trying to find talented candidates will become more and more challenging, which was an issue while I was working there. It has the potential to get back to it’s original mission, but only if top management is replaced. Until then, middle management and hourly employees will continue to be helplessly pushed towards increasing revenue for the company and the CEO.kevesebb

I have worked for goodwill for 7 years the first four I enjoyed but now its terrible, stupid rules, constant change policy, cuting corners to save money(they got rid of night cleaners,house pick ups, drivers and electric automatic doors) goodwill seems to only care about making money and don't care if they stretch out their work force and put more stress on them just to make more money. worst of all is the head managers they have. who thought it was a good idea to have people who think its ok to belittle and talk down on their workers was a good idea? because of them I am the only donar greeter left we normally have 3 but the constant abuse and over working us with out giving any help has led 8 people to quit on me and I am about to o the same the only thing that keeps me from quitting is that I have to pay child support.

Hard workers only need to apply. I had to sort bulks of donated items and decide which were adequate and in good enough condition for public use. I had to barb/tag 10 racks of 70 items of clothing each for floor sale daily.

Basically even if you're just a cashier they still make you do everything else, things the managers should be doing. They pay 7.50 an hour. It's subpar and no one can survive on what they pay. It's barely enough just for fuel to get there.

fun place to work. everyone tries their hardest to get out the desired amount of production each one is supposed to get by the end of the day, while also getting donations and preforming the best customer service they can.

I took this job because I thought I would be helping people but that was not the case. Management sucks. It was clear only after working a few days here that they only cared about money. They would often put unreasonably high prices on second hand items. Management stresses out workers. Would not ever return.
